The Great Escape ~ SCRUG in Long Beach

Colleagues,

In another first for the South Coast Revit Users Group, this Thursday, June 21st, we are escaping from Orange County to hold our first L.A. meeting at Studio One Eleven in Long Beach. (Just one block from the Long Beach Promenade.)

Studio One Eleven is an innovative multidisciplinary design firm founded in 1999. Practice areas include Mixed-Use Development, Affordable and Market Rate Housing, Adaptive Re-use, Transit Oriented Development and Urban Retail. The office was transformed from a vacant retail store into vibrant, creative office space while achieving LEED Platinum and WELL Gold ratings.

Scan2BIM

Scan2BIM is a process which utilizes high definition laser scanning to create high accuracy 3D BIM models for retrofit, refurbishment and renovation projects.

LIDAR Scanning is becoming more widely used, less expensive, and easier to work with. If you want a Revit as-built model, accurate topo surface, verify site grading, or verify construction installation, don’t do it manually - leverage LIDAR.

Chuck Keeley and Garrett Maldoon from Kelar Pacific will demonstrate using point clouds in Revit, Recap Pro, and Navisworks. They will highlight EdgeWise from ClearEdge3D that can automatically extract elements like pipes and surfaces in point clouds and convert to Revit families. Lessons learned and project examples will be shared.

“BIM Planning Made Simple"

BIM is supposed to save us time and money. How do we scope the right BIM, at the right time, by the right people - for the right reasons?

Founder and CEO of LOD Planner Clive Jordan will describe what’s been broken in traditional BIM planning workflows for over a decade, and what others are doing to achieve a process with less waste and risk today.

Previously, Clive served as BIM and Process Integration Leader at The Irvine Company and was with Vico Software (now part of Trimble) during the time when the groundwork for intelligent BIM was being laid.

Thursday, June 21, 2018
6:00 to 8:30 p.m.

Celebrate Summer with SCRUG in L.A.

Alexa, how far is it from O.C. to the Long Beach Promenade? "It is twenty-four miles from Irvine to the Long Beach Promenade." Alexa, why should I attend SCRUG in L.A. ? "Because it's summer and you deserve a break." It's possible that your spouse or significant other has no idea what you do, and may not have seen the cool technology involved in BIM and VDC. Please bring them along for this special meeting. There are plans for an after-party at 111, and that's just one block from the Long Beach Promenade. This Thursday will be an excellent opportunity for you to network with colleagues from across the profession. That is SCRUG's primary purpose. If you attended any of our recent meeting you know what to expect. We apologize for the short notice. There will be a limit on the number of attendees. Thursday, June 21, 2018 6:00 to 8:30 p.m. Please RSVP at SCRUG.Anyvite.com . No “maybes”. Thanks to our sponsors Kelar Pacific, Mic...

BIM-4-Homebuilders

Building Information Modeling has gained acceptance in market sectors other than home building. BIM has become a requirement for large and complex projects, but even with the current upturn in the housing market, many builders - and the designers who serve them - are hesitant to get involved. At the SCRUG BIM Housing Forum , a panel of the leading residential architects and builders in Orange County will discuss their outlook with regard to Building Information Modeling. The purpose of the conference is to promote the awareness, adoption and use of BIM and other advanced technologies within the housing industry in Southern California. The BIM-4-Homebuilders Conference will define and clarify: What is happening in the residential BIM world? What is possible? What does "collaboration" really mean? How can we reduce cost and/or increase profit. How does BIM support Lean, Green, and Sustainable architecture? What is the "M...
